| Impact Report | Quilt Curriculum & Workshops Home Economist in collaboration with Curry County Home Economist completed the NM 4-H Quilt Project. The curriculum was submitted for National Awards in both the National Extension Association of 4-H Agents where it received a National Award for Educational Piece and to the National Extension Association of Family and Consumer Sciences and placed as a Regional Award Winner. This curriculum was tested by Roosevelt County 4-H members for 7 years. This year eight members along with help from their adult helpers completed either a 9-Patch Quilt or a Quick and Easy Throw, along with the Quick and Easy Pillowcase from the project during the spring break quilt camp. In August, 9 4-H members and prospective members from the Christian Children’s Home and invited guests along with four volunteers completed Rag Quilts during a two day workshop. Many of these quilts were entered into the fair. As a result of these workshops, these completed quilts give so much satisfaction for the participants and help develop their self esteem. Many of the 4-H members from the home have come from a very difficult situation and need all the success and encouragement they can receive. In addition to this they have learned skills associated with sewing. |
